Flicker Alley is honored to present four musical comedies from the late years of the Weimar Republic, showcasing the Inchchampagne and caviarInch days of German cinema, a stark contrast to the dawn of one of history's darkest periods. These innovative and oft-risqué works feature some big screen stars, such as Peter Lorre, Hedy Lamarr, and Renate Müller, whose starring role in The Private Secretary was once thought partially lost after all prints of her films were ordered to be destroyed by the Nazi regime.

While the films themselves are wholly mirthful, they are also case studies of an exuberantly artistic era that championed self-expression and creative freedoms, before the extraordinary flame was snuffed out. Feature Films Include Die Privatsekretärin (The Private Secretary) (1931) - Renate Müller plays the title role in director Wilhelm Thiele's workplace comedy (adapted from the 1905 novel by István Szomaházy) about a young woman who goes to work in a bank office in search of a wealthy husband. Der brave Sünder (The Upright Sinner) (1931) - Max Pallenberg stars as Leopold Pichler, a haplessly dedicated banker tasked with transporting money to Vienna, but who is unknowingly part of a larger financial scheme on the part of his boss. Directed by Fritz Kortner, The Upright Sinner is based on Alfred Polgar's play The Embezzlers, in turn based on the novel by Valentin Kataev. Die Koffer des Herrn O.F. (The Trunks of Mr. O.F.) (1931) - Directed by Alexis Granowsky and starring Peter Lorre (arriving on the heels of his star making turn in Fritz Lang's M) and Hedy Lamarr, The Trunks of Mr. O.F. follows a small German town that turns itself upside down in order to impress an imagined visitor whose ext
